Hello
Gandhi has been questioning the prime minister on the Adani issue and has been demanding an investigation into the matter.
In the month and a half since the report, Adani has cancelled Adani Enterprises’ FPO and backtracked on some of the planned projects and acquisitions.
As the House re-convened at 2 PM, BJP MPs and those from the treasury benches raised slogans seeking an apology from Gandhi over his remarks.
A bench headed by Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud will deliver the order on a patch of PILs.
Rahul was speaking at a public meeting in Meenangadi panchayath stadium during a whirlwind visit to his MP constituency of Wayanad.
The move comes days after a rout in its stocks following criticism by a US short-seller.
A report by Hindenburg Research last week alleged improper use of offshore tax havens while flagging concerns about high debt and the valuations of seven listed Adani companies.
The fundraising is critical for Adani, not just because it will help cut his group's debt, but also because it is being seen by some as a gauge of confidence at a time when the tycoon faces one of his biggest business and reputational challenges.
Hindenburg has a track-record of finding corporate wrongdoings and placing bets against the companies.
The Hindenburg Research team alleged that the Adani Group predictably tried to lead the focus away from substantive issues and instead stoked a nationalist narrative.
